On the other hand, students who are interested in entrepreneurship, but do not currentlyhave the ideas or the confidence to start a venture may be bored by some elements of businesscreation, and want more opportunities to gain transferable skills.Instruction that focuses on low intention to start ventures will emphasize the development ofentrepreneurial skills, behaviors, and thinking patterns without pushing students to actually start afirm or create a startup. By focusing on skills, such a program could prevent students from wastingtime creating projections, validating with

Instead of having 7-10 homework problems per week, students didjust 3 problems plus one reflection assignment per week.

As statis-tician George Box famously quipped, “Essentially, all models are wrong, but some are useful.”?This is an unsettling concept for undergraduates, who are most often encouraged to seek a sin-gle ‘right’ answer (i.e. the one found in the back of textbooks). However, students of the finiteelement method have no choice but to consider the impacts of their modeling choices includingboundary conditions, element type, mesh size, etc. A semester project was assigned to get studentsto consider these effects.The semester project required students to develop a set of models for an engineered system oftheir choice.

This may be indicative of a typical problem in engineering education – first-yearcourses are interesting and project-based, but then in the second year, all the intense prerequisitesmust be taken, which limits students’ abilities to engage with social issues within or outside theircourses.
